Detailed Solution

On December 7, 1941, Japan attacked the US naval facility in Pearl Harbor, Hawaii. A surprise attack by around 350 Japanese aircraft resulted in the destruction or major damage of 18 US navy warships, including eight battleships, 300 US aircraft, and the deaths of 2,403 men. Across the country, Americans were stunned, outraged, and enraged. The episode increased public support for the United States entering World War II. The United States formally declared war on Japan on December 8, 1941. On December 11, 1941, Germany and Italy—allies of Japan—declared war on the United States. Similar responses were made by the United States, which resulted in its involvement in World War II.
